Directions: Read widely, scan and find three articles or stories (print, video, etc.) that interest you. Put the title of the three in your writer's notebook with a few sentences of overall summary. Then, choose one you would like to read more closely and print it out. You will be reading this on Monday, annotating it, and doing a close analysis of it. Be sure you get the website of the source.
